Brain Martini
Was Singapore Sling invented to disguise the fact that Women were drinking alcohol in Singapore?
MOREWas Singapore Sling invented to disguise the fact that Women were drinking alcohol in Singapore?
The answer is a resounding no. The Singapore Sling was actually invented by a bartender at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore in 1915. His name was Ngiam Tong Boon and the drink was created as an homage to the ladies who frequent the hotel lobby and also, It is said that he created it to appeal to the many British soldiers stationed in Singapore during World War I. There's no evidence that Ngiam Tong Boon ever intended for his cocktail to be anything other than a refreshing and delicious beverage enjoyed by all.

Chilled Sake
Sake is a traditional rice wine from Japan, although it's more a beer than a wine. It is made by fermenting rice that has been polished to remove the bran. The difference being in beer and in most East Asian rice wines, starch is first converted to sugar which is then fermented to alcohol, where as in wine, alcohol is produced by fermenting sugar that is naturally present in fruits, like grapes. But there is a difference in the brewing process of beer and sake despite the similar starch to alcohol process. that is, unlike beer where start to sugar and sugar to alcohol are created in two distinct steps, sake is produced in one single fermentation process.
Sake is the national beverage of Japan and is served in special ceremonies, gently warmed and served in small porcelain cups called sakazuki. Sake uses K?ji-kin or Aspergillus Oryzae spores, instead of Yeast for the fermentation, koji-kin and yeast both are eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms from the fungus family.Plymouth Gin
Gin is a distilled alcoholic beverage that has it's origin in medicinal liquor made by monks and alchemists across Europe. The historical Gin producing regions are Southern France, Flanders and Netherlands. Gin was originally created to provide aqua vitae from grape and grain distillates.
During the Middle ages, the newly found substance Ethanol was considered by Alchemists to be the water of life, and an aqueous solution of ethanol was in use all over Europe and had different names and is literally the origin of many spirits like Whisky ( from the Gaelic uisce beatha for water of life ). Today Gin is produces from a wide range of ingredients, which gave rise to numerous distinct styles and brands. The predominant flavour of Gin is from the Juniper berries and then each different distillery flavours it further with an assortment of botanicas or herbs, spices, floral and fruit flavours, in different combinations. Gin is commonly drank mixed with Tonic water but it is also often used as a base spirit for many gin based flavoured liqueurs like Sloe Gin.
